In 1944, a retired IRS auditor Anne Scheiber invested $5,000 in stocks; 51 years later, her portfolio was worth $22 million

Anne Scheiber reportedly retired in the mid-1940s with an annual salary of about $3,150. She had never been promoted. Her pay had also changed very little during her final years at the agency. People who knew her believed discrimination at work had held back her career.
